Migration Pre-requisites
Customer will be required to complete Jira migration from their Server/Data Center instance to Cloud instance prior to performing QTM4J Migration.
Customer must migrate all Jira projects to the cloud so that migration should not get failed as QTM4J allows the linking of cross-project entities.
The destination/target cloud Jira instance should not have any QTM4J data created on it.
Migration Process
Migration should be carried out as per the steps below on cloud staging instance first. Once it is verified successfully, the same should be performed on Production instance.
Step 1: Export Server 4.x Data to Secured QMetry Cloud
Download and Install Postman for consuming the REST Endpoint to export the data of QMetry.
Import the provided collection file (Export QMetry Data.postman_collection.json) in Postman.
...
Preparing the following zip files under the JIRA Home directory will take some time. (Generally, the path is: /var/atlassian/application-data/jira)
data.zip
priority_icons.zip
attachments-x.zip (x is the sequence number of the zip file. There can be multiple files)
et_attachments-x.zip (x is the sequence number of the zip file. There can be multiple files)
You may need to fetch export progress status multiple times, once you see “Completed” status in Get export progress API, collect and securely share the created files with QMetry team over secured link (will be provided by support team) to import that data on the Cloud staging and production instance.
Step 2: Import Data to QTM4J 4.x Cloud
Once Step 1 of exporting data to QTM4J Cloud is complete, execute the following steps mentioned on the Jira cloud instance and then inform the QMetry team.
Migration to Staging environment
